I tried to write a lot of things for this event, which was the first school event we held by ourselves, who were the new students of the high school club. The thing I had to do just to write the drafts of the broadcast to advertise this important event. There were total seven drafts I need to write, including two summarized drafts and five drafts for the five activities of this event.However, if that was the essay or paper for my homework, I didn’t need to worry about it. All things I need to…

I never was a kid that loved Reading and Writing. Science and History were my favorite subjects from elementary to high school. I always had a problem with grammar and sentence structure, I never understood where to place a comma, a semicolon or a period. It was always funny to me that my favorite part of any English class was when it came down to poems, I loved writing poems it was something about them that freed my mind. I can’t remember my first poem but I do remember that it was the first…

University because I had already taken the course through a dual enrollment course at my high school. Entering from that class to an actual college English class was very different than what I thought. In the dual enrollment course it was more focused on creative writing than technical writing. In the dual enrollment course it was more of a literature class and I thought college English would resemble that more. We would have an assignments to discuss literature and journals to help us practice…

When I first heard about taking a college English class I was a little hesitant knowing that I am not a very strong writer. I was worried that a college class would be much more fast paced and difficult than the high school classes I had become accustomed to, I was concerned with the class being online, and not having any face to face communication, and I was afraid I would not be able to keep up and I would fall far behind, however this was not the case. While I did struggle some in this class,…

Growing up as a kid my mom and grandmother use to tell me reading will take you far in life. Every night before I went to bed they would read me a story weather I was at home my mom would read to me one of my favorite books which was Dr.Seus green eggs and ham. This book was my favorite because I like the way things rhymed and how he tried to make him like green eggs and ham and at the end he did. Going to my grandmother house she would always read me this Michael Jordan book and it talked about…

When I reflect on my experience of this EH091 class, I cannot help but think that there has been a flame kindled from a spark made from the challenges laid out in the syllabus and module assignments setup for the students’ learning. I knew that I absolutely loved reading and learning but what I wasn’t prepared for was what I discovered about myself in subsequent. In the past, I had been named in my classes in high school as a gifted artist and a decent poet. However, the living of life: being a…

Bruce Lee wrote, “Mistakes are always forgivable, if one has the courage to admit them.” That is true but I had to learn the hard way. When I was in high school I had a brilliant cousin that would always do my papers and assignments for me. My CXC Examinations which is a Caribbean examination was coming up and I had to do my examinations on my own. I was selected to do eleven test and I was so confident that I would pass all of them. When the results came out I only passed three of the test.…

The article I selected for this essay is Me Talk Pretty One Day by David Sedaris. David shares a story of his experience in learning to speak French. He writes about his fears and the challenges he faced. I found the article to be quite humorous and very entertaining. The article’s theme of achieving goals through hard work, dedication, and persistence is because the author worked hard to overcome his adversities, he stayed focused on achieving his goal, and he did not quit even though he faced…

When thinking about the genre of short memoirs there are several aspects to consider. Thus, ensuring the reader’s expectations are met and the writing is easily recognizable as a memoir. Therefore, I have decided to focus on the specific conventions that work to enhance and further the overall purpose of the piece, and ultimately to fulfill those expectations. In order to determine if the work that I created is worthy of being considered a short memoir, I chose to use the following memoirs…
